Parking access and hours 

Permits are required for all vehicles parked on campus during the academic year (September–April inclusive). 

• Daytime and Designated Parking Permits are enforced Monday–Friday, 6 a.m.–6 p.m.
• Outside of these hours (after 6 p.m. and on weekends), permit requirements are relaxed to support evening and weekend campus activities.
• Overnight Parking Permits are required in designated lots, which are monitored 24/7: 
  • Bermuda Lot (behind Bermuda House);
  • King Street Parking Lot (off King Street);
  •  Lansdowne Lot (on Lansdowne Street); and
  • Thornton and Edwards Lot (behind Thornton and Edwards houses).

Faculty and staff parking 

• The Rectory Lane lot and Convocation Hall lot are designated for faculty and staff parking.  
• Faculty and staff may park in other campus lots with a valid parking permit, subject to availability. 
• A valid parking permit is still required to park in faculty/staff lots.
• Students will not be permitted to park in the Rectory Lane lot or Convocation Hall lot.

Security will monitor parking lots and issue citations for vehicles not following the permit regulations. Parking regulations will be posted summer 2026.

The most common reason for a declined payment is that the billing address entered at checkout does not match the address associated with your credit card. 
 
Please ensure you enter the exact billing address your credit card is registered with, including the correct postal code. If the issue continues, please contact your bank to confirm there are no restrictions on your card.

You can also visit the Security desk to purchase a parking permit in person. The Security desk is located in the Wallace McCain Student Centre for those who prefer or require this option.

No physical pass or decal is required to display in your vehicle. Parking permits are managed digitally with the registration of your licence plate. 

No, a 24-hour parking permit gives you access to park in any parking lot during the day and overnight. Please note that overnight parking is only permitted in designated overnight lots (King Street, Edwards/Thornton, and Lansdowne). 

No. You will be able to register multiple vehicles under the same permit at no extra cost, as long as only one vehicle is parked on campus at a time. You will need to switch between vehicles in your online account to indicate which car will be on campus.

Improvements Completed (2025)  

• Rectory Lane and Hillcrest lots were professionally regraded and compacted with gravel in fall 2025 to improve surface conditions.  
• The new Lansdowne Street lot opened in August 2025, adding 158 parking spaces.  

Planned Improvements (2026)  

• Paving of the Lansdowne Street lot (158 spaces) 
• Paving of the Rectory Lane lot (71 spaces) 

These upgrades will increase the number of paved spaces to 539 (92%). Paving improves lot conditions, makes snow removal and maintenance more efficient, and allows for more precise line painting and optimized layout. 

It is expected that moving to paid parking will encourage those who live close to campus will not park on campus, thus decreasing demand. While purchasing a parking permit does not guarantee a specific parking space, the overall number of available spots is sufficient to meet daily usage, with the highest demand occurring in the fall term. Because vehicles come and go throughout the day, a single parking space may be used by multiple vehicles depending on schedules and campus traffic patterns. 

Parking enforcement depends on the time of day and applies during the academic year (September–April).

• Overnight (12 a.m.– 5:59 a.m.):

  Monitored every night, including weekends. Overnight parking is limited to Overnight permit holders.
• Weekdays (6 a.m.– 5:59 p.m.):

  Monitored Monday–Friday for General, Designated, and Carpooling permits.

• Evenings (6 p.m.–11:59 p.m.) and Weekends
  Not actively monitored during lower-demand periods.

Examples:

• If you have a Daytime Permit and stay parked until 7:30 p.m., you will not receive any citations.
• If you are a guest attending a theatre performance between 7:30 p.m. and 11 p.m., you will not receive any citations.

These changes — including reduced evening and weekend monitoring — were made in response to community feedback to make parking more flexible while still managing demand during busy times.

Students, faculty, staff, and visitors can purchase parking permits online through 91°µÍø's . 

If you'd prefer to pay with debit or cash, you can visit the Security desk located in the Wallace McCain Student Centre.

Parking permits are non-refundable. Please choose the parking permit that best suits your needs. If you are uncertain about requiring a full-year permit (such as a daytime parking permit), we recommend purchasing a monthly permit instead of committing to the full academic year. This allows flexibility in case your parking needs change.

Payroll deduction is not available for purchasing a parking permit.

We are providing advance notice to help the University community and the wider community plan for purchasing a parking permit in 2026. Multiple payment options, including debit and credit, will be available.

The cost of a parking pass cannot be added to tuition.

Parking fees are managed separately from tuition and must be paid through the Security office or the online parking website. We offer various payment methods to make the process convenient, including credit, debit, and online payment.

Purchasing a parking permit does not guarantee a parking space. Parking operates on a first-come, first-served basis.

A reminder that a new parking lot on Lansdowne Street has recently opened, providing another option for permit holders. While we strive to provide sufficient parking for all permit holders, availability may vary during peak times. We recommend arriving early, especially during high-demand periods (9 a.m.–1 p.m.), to increase the likelihood of finding a spot.

If you require accessible parking, a parking permit will still be required. Additionally, if you have a valid accessible parking permit issued by the province, you can park in any of the designated accessible parking spaces available across campus upon coordination with the People and Culture department.

As a reminder, community members can report unsafe conditions to Security by calling (506) 364-2228. 

Purchasing parking permits can be completed in person at the Security desk in the Wallace McCain Student Centre for those who prefer or require this option. 

Yes, Sackville/Tantramar community members and other campus visitors will be able to purchase parking permits. These will be available online through the same used by students, faculty, and staff. 

No. Street parking is managed by the Municipality of Tantramar, not 91°µÍø, so a University parking permit is not required or valid for street parking. Be sure to follow municipal parking regulations and posted signs to avoid tickets or towing.

No. The Civic Centre lot is managed by the Municipality of Tantramar, and 91°µÍø permits will not be valid or required there.

While the Municipality may occasionally allow parking during special events, the lot is not intended for regular use by 91°µÍø community members.
